Fortnite Mouse Settings and Keybindings Used by Pros

Practice, practice, practice. Fortnite is all about practicing and then putting into… practice everything you learned. Fornite can be split into three individual skill sets, which you must meddle together. These skill sets are aiming, building, and editing. In my mind, becoming a decent Fortnite player takes at least 6 months of constant practicing in Fortnite Aim courses and Fortnite Building & Editing courses while also playing Battle Royale & Arena Solos, Duos, Trios & Squads.

I don't know if the cute graphics fools you, but Fortnite takes a lot of time to master. A lot of boring time even. It's no surprise that the top esports players in the world are paid so well, and Fortnite players even more so. Even following the action when watching a live stream can challenge a novice.

This post does not aim to teach you how to become an excellent Fortnite player. However, one way of getting better at a game is imitation. Not just by playing the same game modes but also by studying what pro Fortnite players do.

So this post is about the gaming mice and keyboards Fortnite pros use because the gear is essential in competitive games.

Even more so, this guide is about their mouse sensitivity settings and keybindings. You can also find cross-game mouse sensitivity settings converters.

I will list the settings and gear used by some of the best players globally, and I will explain how they helped me find my own best keybindings so that I can start getting used to them and eventually become a better player.

Let's get started, then.

Bugha's Fortnite Keybindings

His building key bindings are very similar to the default key bindings of the game. I'm impressed by anyone who can play with these bindings, especially when they can become a world champion, as I find it very hard, and you have to use your thumb and pointer while moving around with the other three fingers.

I have no idea how much practice it takes, but he can play with these amazingly.

[Faze Clan] Mongraal

Kyle “Mongraal” Jackson is a Fortnite esports player, currently a player for FaZe Clan Europe. Mongraal is one of the best European players in Fortnite and one of my favorites too.

Mongraal's Mouse

Mongraal's Keybindings

Mongraal is an awesome builder, but as you can see, he builds with the mouse. He also plays with tilted keyboard positioning. This requires some ambidexterity as he uses both hands in full force while building. One massive benefit of this approach, contrary to others, is that he can use Q and X for fast weapon 4 & 5 swaps. That's pretty neat!

Myth's Fortnite Keybinds

Myth is another great builder; his settings seem natural to me. He builds both with the mouse and the keyboard, and Q is awesome for fast wall building (I use Q too). I would expect him to use E and the Mouse Button 5 for the stairs and floor, but instead, he uses the default C for stair building and the mouse button to build floors. He utilizes fast weapon switching with his mouse wheel up and down buttons.

Tfue uses a Finalmouse Custom mouse.

FinalMouse Starlight-12 Pegasus (Small)
FinalMouse Starlight-12 Pegasus (Small)
  • Starlight-12 Magnesium Chassis with Ultem Base
  • The Magnesium Chassis can slightly vary in thickness due to the manufacturing processes & complexities involved. Therefor the weight of each individual mouse may vary by +- 2 grams. Final assembled weight including battery/feet/screws/paint/coating is ~42 grams for Small and ~47 grams for medium
  • The bottom of the mouse is made of Ultem NOT magnesium for the purposes of allowing the wireless signal to escape. It is therefor not as strong as magnesium and should not be squeezed or strength tested as one could with the sides or top of the mouse
  • The Finalsensor is designed to go into various stages of rest mode after being in idle for set periods of time. Testing the mouse from a standstill if the mouse is in a rest mode will not reflect the accurate latency performance of the mouse Finalsensor is an industry leading flawless esports sensor with a Resolution (cpi) of up to 20,000. And an IPS of ~450+ with integrated illumination. You can expect next gen performance

Tfue's Fortnite Keybinds

Tfue's keybindings make a lot of sense to me, and I based mine upon keys. The only thing that confuses me is why Tfue still uses C for building instead of sticking to all the upper-row buttons (let's say Q, E, and R, which I have).

He knows better, of course, and he uses the mouse only for the Trap and the icing on the cake (the roof). I consider these settings the first “human” ones in this list.
